Excellent idea... if the casino provides some direct equity or covers some operational cost for an extended period of time. I'm told the Port will take ownership of the underlying property from the city, so that should make development of the adjacent surface parking into something cool a lot easier.

Is there a guide somewhere that defines each percentage level in layman’s terms?

30 - ROUGH
60 - Roughly good enough to get a general idea of the final concept and ROUGH costs.
90 - Roughly good enough to begin construction and get the majority of what is planned to occur in the real world.
